My English is bad, sorry.
I rooted my G9350 by odin flashing a TWRP recovery, but there is so many bugs that I can not stand, so I flash official ROM back.
But when I test front camrea by using system camrea app, I found the first shot is overturned, and after the second shot the photo become deep red black or color detached......
In "*#0*#" service mode, the front camrea is no any problem, in third-party camera app, the captured photo is also overturned.....
I have flashed back official ROM by using odin many times, but it does not work....
I have asked Samsung's support, they say they have no way to solve...
Who can help me? Thanks!
Have you tried a full factory reset? If you have, try to change storage location to SD or vice versa

I bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 i9500 and from the start I have not been able to take a picture. Whenever I open the camera application, I get the message "Warning Camera Failed". I have tried the factory reset, WANAM camera fix, various Stock Roms and I am evening running the Omera ROM right now. None of these seem to work, could this be a hardware or software issue and is there a fix for it?

Test the camera in test mode. Enter *#0*# on your dialpad and choose mega cam and see if the camera works there. If it still crashes there, then chances are it's a hardware problem.
Thanks so much otacon88. I have tried the camera in test mode and it still does not work. So it is safe to assume its a hardware problem?

If you have message "Camera failed"...
First of all try this: Open Camera app from the "Application manager" and do "Clear data", then restart the phone.
Second: Do a Factory reset (of course save your data!).
Third: Reinstall Android OS.
If this not help you, you have a hardware problem. You need to change the camera.

Okay ...when I open the camera app (especially when I open it from the lock screen) it says "can't connect to camera" its very annoying and I have to reboot to use it .. I searched in Google about it and most of the threads says that this problem is from the 4.2.2 .. I hope that it from the software not from the hardware ...
CHANGED THE TITLE AND THE THREAD>>> the front camera isnt working i reflashed the rom and flashed cyanogenemod 10.1 and its still not working .when i enter the camera and switch from rear to front the app isnt responding and when i close it and open it ... the app says "cant connect to camera" but when i reboot it the rear comes back but the front it same ... okay it a hardware problem but i havent done anything to the device i bought it about 3 weeks ago .. it still new
Update: the camera problem is from camera app .. I reboot it and when I enter from an app like cymera which have a camera .. It running very well but when enter the official camera its a black screen and the warning is showing in cymera too ... I need you 4.3

It could be a hardware issue. Try flashing another ROM like AOKP to see if that works. If there is no ROM/kernel combination that will work, then it's probably hardware.

Don't you think you answered the question yourself? You reflashed a STOCK CLEAN image, but it still doesn't work. That leaves software out of the question.

Doesn't matter. As long as you unroot and relock the bootloader, bring it back and tell them it stopped working. You should be under warranty.
Please follow the guides to return it FULLY to stock. Including the stock ROM.

Edit: here's the metropcs firmware https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwpP0WNhAe9vdXZkVUNvMXFqMWc/view?usp=drivesdk
Edit:Title is wrong, its a sm-g550t1
Hi there. I'm really in desperate need of help. I am not always a very smart man.
I recently installed TWRP using the guide for this phone, and the first thing I encountered was I couldn't install it from download mode due to FRP. So I googled that, saw it would go away if I unlinked my Google accounts, which it did. Then I made a backup immediately.
However, later I linked my Google accounts and so now, after restarting, my phone will just say Custom Binary blocked by FRP. I can no longer access recovery mode, only download mode, and I can't install anything due to the FRP lock.
I am very frustrated, have gotten little sleep, because as I said I am not always a very smart man. I rely on my phone for my work and I can't afford another one. Someone gave me the stock firmware but its in the TWRP format and I don't know how to install those files with Odin.
So please, if you have time I really need help. If i could offer any sort of financial thanks I would but I just can't right now. But I swear I'll send so much good karma your way. I've definitely learned a lot from this process, usually breaking **** is how I learn best, but I wish I did this with a throwaway.
So I've narrowed it down a bit. I need a stock recovery.img and maybe a stock system.img so I can flash them in odin. Please, if you can somehow help I really need it right now.

Rooting after a certain version has the issues you described. I think it happened when the BootLoader upgrade happened. Look into the u firmware. Rooting on this device is different and kind of unstable.

to my understanding from other methods that i've seen on here they all say to remove ur sim card so idk might be an option if someone wants to attempt it and if it works I'm down for doing it
I found one with all workarounds for the problems with rooting this phone. Fixes for data cell service, and you can google wifi fix to save your wifi information after reboot. Involves build.prop editor.
@Nickvanexel Normally when folks boast about something important on a popular device, they back it up with either a how-to or links that point them in the right direction.

I tried flashing TWRP image for J500H via Odin but it showed passed in Odin but the Recovery wasn't installed
(Pardon my noob questions. I've been around android development for the past few years. I am basically a Sony and Pixel user never used or worked for any Samsung devices before)

Well you have to watch videos on YouTube to prevent brick your phone!
For twrp installing:use the latest version of twrp and don't forget that untick auto restart at odin
When it passed on odin unplug your phone from pc anf get out your battery and after 5sec put it in.and try to go to twrp by volume up+home+power
Good luck

Sorry to bother you again but does the Camera get lost after unlocking the bootloader (like we do in Sony)?
Cause I am seeing, "error, camera is being used by another application"

Feel free bro..i will always be happy if i can help
No bro we don't have such thing at samsung
Unlocking bootloader is just a option that you can install custom rom without any issue
BTW:where you got that error?
SCS and and your phone model and what app do you use would may be helpful

The problem occurred after unlocking. And the toast notification showed, "Unable to open camera, camera is being used by another application". (Sorry I couldn't grab an screenshot. I thought it was hardware side problem but I checked it. Even if was the rare camera issue then the front camera should work. The flashlight isn't working too,)
I forgot to backup the stock ROM and lost it on ROM installation but after installing ROMs, same issue. I tried 3 ROMs, A8 Port, LineageOS 16 and currently on EvoX.
Tried different camera apps , tried WhatsApp camera also, no luck..
Even CPU-Z isn't recognising the Camera.
The device model is J53gxx.
I flashed TWRP exactly as you said.

My advice would be flash stock ROM through Odin and start all over again.
Boot stock rom and make sure camera and flashlight works, then enable oem unlocking and USB debugging and install twrp and a new rom.
If that doesn't solve the issue then it may be hardware related.
Also you could get a log of trying to open camera app and post it here.
